1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: As media.

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 2: Okay, I know I made a big stink last episode

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 2: about how the memification of it all means I can't

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: take it serious. You really called that boy bbl drake

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 2: though the memes are still funny. Though, Oh man, hood politics, y'all.

6
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's probably the fastest intro we've ever had,

7
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 2: because I need to get.

8
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 3: Right to it.

9
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 2: Part three Lessons from the Big Three, which is also

10
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 2: you wasn't outside episode. So much going on and so

11
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 2: many lessons to take from this moment culture, in the

12
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: world and in politics. That again, our foundational premise is

13
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: that if you understand in a cityhood living, you understand politics,

14
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: and part of that is keeping up with the tea

15
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: and hip hop. And as I get into this particular comparison,

16
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: before we go too far into it, please understand that

17
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: a foundational premise for battling is that, Okay, these are

18
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: two grown men writing poems about each other, and it

19
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: was for the purpose of keeping away from violence, right

20
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: and of course, oftentimes because hip hop comes from a

21
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: street culture, you know, there's violence sometimes gets involved. But

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: whether it was I mean, I'm talking like you know,

23
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 2: early seventies the Bronx, like the sound clashes, you know,

24
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: breakdancing battles. It was really so that the violence would

25
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: get taken out of our streets. Right, So even me

26
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: talking about this comparison with the big like this is

27
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: just rap.

28
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: Okay, these are millionaires.

29
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: With stuff that don't really matter, you know, like it

30
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: don't really this doesn't matter. So please understand that I

31
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 2: am not putting on the same playing field these silly

32
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 2: little poems that these grown men are writing to each

33
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 2: other at the same level as a forced famine and

34
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: genocide where millions of people are being starved to death

35
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: or bombed to death.

36
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 1: They are not the same.

37
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: What we are talking about is understanding what's going on.

38
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: So that's the first caveat and the only caveat. And

39
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: now this week's episodes we'll see it's like.

40
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 4: This, Bullduk is like this, Bullduk is like this, Bullduk

41
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 4: is like bull is like this.

42
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: All right, Obviously we're dropping this in much later than

43
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: when we recorded this episode because clearly this is the

44
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 2: discussions over.

45
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: You know, nobody could have predicted.

46
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: A minor so we've moved on to other things currently,

47
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: and the current things we moved on to could potentially

48
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: be called a genocide sandwich because there were some things

49
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: that were funny, and then there was some other stuff

50
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: going on right now that's not funny. The funny stuff

51
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 2: is the City of Minnesota understanding the Internet well enough

52
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: to hear Charles Barkley say he ain't he ain't home,

53
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: remember last time He've been to Minneapolis, and then the

54
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: young shooter from Minneapolis saying, bring you ass, Minneapolis. The

55
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: City of Minneapolis quickly bought the domain and changed their

56
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 2: tourism at website address to bring yass dot com. Absolutely

57
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: brilliant and rest in peace to NBA on TNT as

58
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 2: that NBC has purchased it. I haven't felt like this

59
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: since ye inside stuff he did next is justice Alita,

60
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: who I can't explain how out of bounds this situation

61
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: is and also how much of a real one. He

62
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 2: presented himself as what do I mean by this? He

63
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 2: been in a feud with his neighbor. Well, according to him,

64
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 2: his wife has been in a feud with his neighbor,

65
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: and patrol his neighbor. He put up a Maga flag

66
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: at his house, which again was supposed to be a troll. However, no, no, no,

67
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: it was a pro January sixth flag like, which is

68
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 2: basically American flag upside down, So like that's the symbol

69
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: he was pulling off at his house, to which he said,

70
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: wait before I even get to what he said. Also,

71
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 2: there was another one that's this pine tree, which is

72
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 2: this symbol for this crew called Appeal to Heaven super

73
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: you know, Christian dominionist nationalist thing that's like, look, we

74
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 2: need to make America Christian fully government everything. So he

75
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: had both those flags on his house and in the

76
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 2: most real way, the most real one, fashion Homie blamed

77
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 2: his wife.

78
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: He say, look, she hung it up. I don't look

79
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: that's on her.

80
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 2: Listen, if a man, if you ask a man out,

81
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 2: you ask a man to do something and he's like,

82
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: should be cool. Just let me check with my wife

83
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: and then I'll let you know he not coming. He

84
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: just throwing her under the busy. Let me tell you something, husband,

85
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 2: do this all the time. We be throwing our wives

86
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 2: under the bus all the time, like, ah, yeah, nah,

87
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: I've been out a few weeks, Like I don't think.

88
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: I don't think she's gonna go for it, you know,

89
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: daddy duty, homie. We just be throwing her rather than

90
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 2: just saying no, oh, let me check with my wife, bro,

91
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 2: I'll hit you right back. He not coming, he just

92
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 2: using her as an excuse. Now on to the ultimate

93
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: horribleness you got Israel dropping a big old air quotes

94
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 2: target did bomb on a tent city in Rafa, saying

95
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 2: that hitting that ten city was a horrible and tragic mistake.

96
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 2: And I'm like, just like hitting that World Food Bank

97
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: truck was a horrible and tragic mistake. Bodies burnt, kids decapitated.

98
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 2: You talking about my bad bruh. Either your target system

99
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: is terrible or actually spot on, like maybe this is

100
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 2: what y'all meant to do. I just I don't I

101
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: don't know how y'all live with y'allself With this one

102
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: and other news looks like Ireland, Norway, and Spain are

103
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 2: joining a lot of the other nations of the world

104
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: of finally putting some respect on Palestine's name and actually

105
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 2: acknowledging them as a country. Now, remember a lot of

106
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: times I talked about like normalizing relations and the way

107
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 2: for which we, you know, function with Taiwan and stuff

108
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 2: like that. That's what's happening right now, very similar to

109
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: that to where we're saying, I'm gonna I am going

110
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 2: to if you say your nation, I'm gonna respect you

111
00:06:58,839 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 2: as that.

112
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: Now in a lot of ways.

113
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: Right now, this is somewhat symbolic because it's not like

114
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: you only become a nation because other nations acknowledge you

115
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: as one. But on the other hand, if other nations

116
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 2: don't acknowledge you as a nation, then what does your

117
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: national status mean anyway? So it's kind of got to

118
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 2: go together. That makes sense, right. You could refer to

119
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: yourself as whatever you want. Doctor Dre ain't actually a doctor,

120
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 2: right but we call him doctor Dre, but we don't

121
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 2: ign don't nobody want him to work on your back

122
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: if you got to back issues?

123
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying. Maybe he did go get

124
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: his PhD. I don't know.

125
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: I just know we call him doctor. But just because

126
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: we call him doctor, don't make him a doctor. You

127
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: understand I'm talking about. So on the other hand, you

128
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: could be an actual MD and nobody is willing to

129
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: come with you or to have work done on you.

130
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 2: So maybe you got the paperwork, But what difference does

131
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: it make if don't nobody respect you as one?

132
00:07:58,760 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: You need both.

133
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: Do you understand what I'm trying to say, we're looking

134
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 2: forward to finally, we're looking forward to the conclusion of

135
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: one of Trump's trials. I can't believe I still got

136
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: to talk about it. Anyway, let's get back to BBL Trissy.

137
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: The background.

138
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 2: If you don't already know, I'm gonna try to whizz

139
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 2: through it is since this is part three the ongoing

140
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 2: rivalry between Kendrick and Drake, and then somehow j Cole

141
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: got put into this because j Cole presented himself as

142
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: the Big Three, right, and these are the three top

143
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 2: you know artists in hip hop, right, which is Big

144
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: shawn E. Raser and also Future Eraser and really in

145
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: this the story is future, right. So these are just

146
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 2: this versus where you know, one rapper talks about another rapper,

147
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 2: And if you've been following the culture, this dissing back

148
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 2: and forth with each other has been going on for

149
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 2: at least a decade, right, This particular round is so

150
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: important because.

151
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: It's so mask off.

152
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: What it has seemed to have done was spark an

153
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: entire regional war because so many people have jumped in.

154
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 2: There's bars that apparently asap Rocky was talking to Drake

155
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: about There's and all of this is out of Future's

156
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 2: album Future metro Bloomen did an album together first and

157
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: lead single Kendrick comes for Cole and Drake's neck. And

158
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: the thing about Cole and Drake is like that's been

159
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: are not Drake and Kendrick is that's been an ongoing

160
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 2: thing very much like I said before Michael Jackson and

161
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 2: Prince right, which, like we said at EPISOD so two

162
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 2: of this is like, this is where it's kind of

163
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,239
Speaker 2: gets silly, because this is like.

164
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: Like art of rap versus business of rap.

165
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 2: This is pop versus indie, So it's already apples and oranges, right,

166
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 2: So like, but the thing about the pop guy, Drake

167
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: is the boy can really rap, right, And then the

168
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 2: thing about the indie dude, which is Kendrick, he can

169
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: also make a hit two right. So anyway, and like

170
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 2: we said in episode two, the key to taking Drake

171
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 2: apart is you go for the one thing he desires,

172
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: which is credibility with the culture. I put culture in

173
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 2: big old air quotes because I am talking about this

174
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 2: unidentifiable but very recognizable thing that we call blackness, Black

175
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 2: American culture. This this cool, this this thing that has

176
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 2: always How do I say this the source material for

177
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 2: what becomes pop. It still irritates me when people talk

178
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 2: about gen z slang and I'm like, no, that's black

179
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 2: young black slang. It's because again, black people are the

180
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: source material. I mean quote me, black youth are the

181
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 2: source material.

182
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 3: Right.

183
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: There is a bigger which I'm pretty sure we covered.

184
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: I don't remember because I'm actually recording this out of order.

185
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 2: This is episode three. I'm gonna record episode two after this.

186
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: I just know what I'm gonna talk about in episode two.

187
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 2: It's the paradox of the light skin, which I giggle

188
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 2: because it's like, it's it's really unfair to say this,

189
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 2: but because I am, in fact not and there's a

190
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: way to overcome it.

191
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: You take somebody like Steph Curry.

192
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: Again, he light skinned, but he don't be doing a

193
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 2: lot of the corny, weird I need to be accepted stuff.

194
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: I think partially because both his parents are black, they

195
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 2: just happen to be fair skinned. But you take somebody

196
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 2: like a Drake who's got a white mother. The idea

197
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: of you're not black enough for the black people, and

198
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: you definitely ain't white enough for white people. There always

199
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: has been a need at least in America to be

200
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: socially accepted in one of these cultures.

201
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: Right, Obviously these are flagrant.

202
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: Generalizations that doesn't apply to everyone. Obviously, you please know

203
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that. So like, respect, do respect on

204
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 2: the names of all my little fair skinned friends little

205
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 2: I don't mean little, but all all the fair skinned

206
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: family out there. Respect do on that, like, trust me,

207
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: you know that's not what I'm saying. And y'all know

208
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. When I'm talking about what I'm

209
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: talking about, you know you know them, dude, because either way,

210
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 2: both of these worlds can see you as pretending.

211
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: It's a difficult thing in reality.

212
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: In sociocultural reality, it is a difficult thing, you know.

213
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: And obviously I speak from a perspective as a rather

214
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 2: dark skinned man that sees the idea that like, well,

215
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: y'all get to be pretty like everybody likes y'all curly hair,

216
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 2: you get to be fair skin in that dark anti

217
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: black is an international thing. So it's hard for me

218
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 2: to see outside of my own lenses except for looking

219
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 2: at what's going on. So when you look at somebody

220
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 2: like Drake, who has always been accepted as attractive, you know,

221
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: you may think he's funny looking now, or may be

222
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: thy funny looking during the Degrassi things, but that life

223
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 2: skin you know, calmly, you know, that's how you land

224
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: shows like Degrassi. You feel me, but you get to

225
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,719
Speaker 2: pretend to be black because you are black, you know

226
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

227
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: Like, at the end of the day, you are black.

228
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: But that's because I.

229
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 2: Understand social constructs, which is ultimately what we're talking about.

230
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 2: Either way, it is very clear to anyone when someone

231
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 2: is trying too hard that no matter how many accolades

232
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: a person gets right, no matter how many awards, you

233
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: could be the I think I may have said this,

234
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: I know I'm going to say it on the episode

235
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 2: before this, but I'm reiterated right now just to catch

236
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 2: all up. You could be the prom king captive of

237
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: the football team, captive of the basketball team. You could

238
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: have already slayed every cheerleader, You've bagged everyone there, but

239
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 2: all you want is to be able to hang out

240
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 2: behind the bungalows and smoke weed with the homies.

241
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 1: But them niggas think you corny.

242
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: So no matter how many accolades you get, it's never

243
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 2: enough because you just want to be accepted with the homies.

244
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: So flash, your little flash, your little prom can't like them.

245
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: Niggas didn't go to prom because they don't care.

246
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: Does that make sense. They're not trying to be accepted

247
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: by that. They're not trying to be cool.

248
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: They just are.

249
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: And it's clear when somebody is so that so, so

250
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 2: you take somebody like Drake again, this is all just

251
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 2: for comparison where and this is how you this is

252
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: how you take this guy down in his battle. That's

253
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 2: why who I'm going to talk about now, which is

254
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: who I'm gonna talk about in this show, which is

255
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: Ricky Ross, is that this is the worst kept secret.

256
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: This is what everyone in the industry knows. You just

257
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: want to be one of us, and one of us

258
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: is in Like he says in his little trolling thing,

265
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: lick with you because clearly you know how to make money.

266
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 2: But nigga like you not you corny like and it's

267
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 2: almost like and it's okay, now please hear me.

268
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: Drake's an international star. So the corn What difference does

269
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: it make? What anybody thinks?

270
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 2: Okay, so remember that and and and the difference between

271
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 2: him and Cole.

272
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: Cole has accepted it.

273
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 2: Cole is like, I'm a square, Like he says on

274
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: his on the song with Future, He's like, I was

275
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: a college nigga that just wanted to smash your girl.

276
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 2: He was like, I gotta I wasn't really outside. I

277
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: just liked how it smelled. I used to like catch

278
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 2: it with like I kick it with y'all, but like

279
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 2: I don't really I'm not here when they shoot. It's

280
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 2: the boys in the hood thing when we talk about

281
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: when Doe Boy was ready to shoot eventually when it

282
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: was time to go Cuba Good and Junior got out

283
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: the car.

284
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: You not really built for this. And that's okay.

285
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: And that's what Cole is saying, which means that a

286
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 2: lot of his I got shooters raps are done. But

287
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 2: he just he admitted it, like I'm not It's not

288
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: what I am. So maybe Drake has friends, like, don't

289
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: get me wrong, Like just again, I'm talking about this

290
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 2: particular melee that we're in where And in his response,

291
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: he was like, oh, it's twenty to one now, y'all

292
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: all everybody coming at me. It's almost like Drake was

293
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: just tolerated. He was necessary because he's a hit maker.

294
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: And it may have felt like because apparently Future said

295
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 2: the same thing. He was like, I don't really like

296
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 2: the dude. It's just the music was so good that

297
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 2: we made. But I don't really laying a lot of

298
00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 2: these stars really do come from from the blows, you

299
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Right, So when Drake say stuff

300
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 2: like started from the bottom now here, nigga, you didn't

301
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 2: you were on a TV as you doesn't start from

302
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 2: the bottom.

303
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: But the songs, it's.

304
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 2: A great song, like you can't like. That's the thing

305
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 2: about him. He these are catchy ass songs. If you're

306
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 2: a rappers necessary, He's the biggest artist, Like, it's necessary

307
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 2: you gotta do music with him, you know what I mean?

308
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 2: So he could always say I gave you your first hit,

309
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: I gave you your last hit.

310
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, but.

311
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 2: That don't mean we like you. That doesn't mean you're accepted.

312
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,199
Speaker 2: But for him, again, I don't remember. I don't know

313
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 2: these people.

314
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: Okay.

315
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 2: I'm just using this as an example as we're watching

316
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 2: this to help us understand what's happening.

317
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: It is real.

318
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 2: So that doesn't mean we like you just because we

319
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 2: work with you. Okay, We've never liked you. Now, just

320
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: because I'm laughing at the way Rose jumped in into

321
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 2: a fight that wasn't even he is but Ricky rick

322
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 2: Ross is so funny the BBL Drake, right, just because

323
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: I'm laughing at this, and just because I actually do

324
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 2: find a little joy in you shooting at Drake, that

325
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: don't mean we mess.

326
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: With you either. Just you're you're not a hero either.

327
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 2: You had your own thing that you needed to take

328
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: care of, and it's doub to watch you take care

329
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: of it. Not necessarily a hero. Let's talk about it, Ron,

330
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 2: did you know That's where I was going.

331
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 3: Let's take a break, all right, we're back.

332
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: So Iran okay, has entered the chat. But to understand

333
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 2: really what I mean by Iran has entered the chat,

334
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 2: you have to know that Iran was always in the chat, okay,

335
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 2: And that's whether you wasn't outside piece starts really coming

336
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:21,479
Speaker 2: together in mob life gang life, you know, but I'm

337
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 2: gonna say specifically sort of gang stuff because that's what

338
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: I know a little more. Maybe not as intimately as

339
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 2: others do, but I know much well that I know

340
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: mob life.

341
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: A lot of times there's like starter gangs.

342
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 2: You feel me, Like if you hear rappers say like

343
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 2: I'll get my young shooters to do this, Like there's

344
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 2: so there's the main set, you know what I'm saying.

345
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 2: That's like, that's where are like the Ulg's, the big homies, Like,

346
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 2: that's where they exist, and what they do is a

347
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 2: lot of times they franchise out right.

348
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: So you have smaller versions that are.

349
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 2: Like Beg's, and there's different types playboy gangsters, his neighborhood.

350
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 2: Like there's just all these different diferent types of strategy.

351
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 2: So it's like for the sixth and seventh and like

352
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 2: the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth graders, you're in the

353
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 2: starter gangs, you know what I'm saying. So the y'all

354
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: junior high kids, y'all earning y'all stripes, and a lot

355
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 2: of times they be the most violent because they trying

356
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: to like they earning their key, you know what I'm saying.

357
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 2: So sometimes those little those other little like sets.

358
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So you got the gang

359
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: and you got the set, you know what I'm saying, in.

360
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: The set be smaller versions of this stuff, and that

361
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 2: means that there's a shot caller somewhere that's in the

362
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 2: bigger gang, right the ulgis And a lot of times

363
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 2: the stuff that the little starter sets be doing really

364
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 2: be proxies for what's going on with the main set,

365
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 2: because the main set is for some reason would rather

366
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 2: have the young shooters do it because maybe somebody's facing

367
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: too many felonies, maybe, like there's a lot of different

368
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 2: reasons why they do that stuff. Now, Now to me,

369
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 2: this is where it's like, Okay, this is one of

370
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 2: my knowledge is because I'm not in the big gang,

371
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 2: but I know that they be doing stuff like that

372
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: when I'm like, yo, it's really them that's setting up this.

373
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 2: But since I'm not on the hood, I can't really

374
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 2: know that knowledge. But I do know that's the little

375
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 2: wyji of not the rapper YG, but the young gangster.

376
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 2: That's the little homie of this dude. So really the

377
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 2: stuff that's going on in the neighborhood is really about that.

378
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: Right.

379
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 2: So now that being said, as I'm pretty sure you know,

380
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 2: Israel and Hamas are locked into a hot war where

381
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 2: the rest of the world is, well, most of the

382
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 2: world except for a lot of the West, is looking

383
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 2: at Israel like, okay, guys, like we was with you.

384
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 2: Y'all a right to defend yourself, but you're kind of

385
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 2: like you've gone way past defend yourself. Israel is like,

386
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 2: y'all don't understand. We gonna do what we gotta do.

387
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: It's destruction. This is all review. You should know this.

388
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 2: The death toll between Israel and the Palestinians, it's not

389
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 2: even close. Israel has gone up and beyond in the

390
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 2: carnage to the point of where, you know, the International

391
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: Justice Court, to the point to where people that were like, look,

392
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 2: we was on your side for a while, but like

393
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 2: god damn right, you are bugging So that so that's happening.

394
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 2: And then what hits the American news is a drone

395
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 2: strike from Iran that hit Israeli soil. But the drone strike,

396
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 2: my dog, Iran came in a hot homie. They talking

397
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 2: about three hundos three hundred drones, cruise missiles and from

398
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 2: every angle, Yeah, they're the homies from a rock shooting.

399
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 2: They had the homies, the hoo Thi's out of Yemen.

400
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 2: They were shooting. Everybody was shooting. Like I said, you

401
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 2: bring your little homies when you're trying to do the things.

402
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: So they was all shooting at it, and Israel's iron dome,

403
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 2: nigga worn't They shot down over ninety percent of him

404
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 2: cruised like it was literally just a little bit of

405
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 2: property damage and a couple folks that went to the

406
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: hospital and some traumatized folk. They unloaded the full clip. America, Britain, France,

407
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 2: everybody helped the defense of Israel.

408
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: Israel's outraged.

409
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 2: I can't believe you guys to do that. In American

410
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 2: media is like, this is an unprecedented attack. And maybe

411
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 2: it's unprecedented, but not the way that they mean. So

412
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 2: let's get it. Let's get into the juice. Remember how

413
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 2: I said, Drake is like a necessary thing, but all

414
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 2: he really wants to do is be accepted, and he

415
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 2: will set flames to everything. He will battle everybody if

416
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 2: he can't just get what he wants. Like as many

417
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 2: accolades as I have, y'all still won't accept me as

418
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: one of y'all. That's Israel in the Middle East.

419
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: We are a nation. We deserve to be here.

420
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: We are from here, or we got scattered in you know,

421
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 2: five point fifty BC. We're finally back, and why won't

422
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: y'all accept us? And the Middle East is like, cause

423
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: you're not us. You just came in here acting weird,

424
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 2: like y'all. There's a phrase like y'all left brown and

425
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: came back white, like y'all you're not. And the way

426
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 2: y'all came you came in fraudulent. You came in like

427
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 2: just boguarding your way.

428
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: And if we.

429
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 2: Supposed to be, if we supposed to be the same people,

430
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 2: then why are you treating us this way? Look how

431
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 2: you're treating the Palestinians, our brothers and sisters like no, nigga,

432
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 2: you're not one of us. And they're like, whatever we

433
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 2: got America, whatever we like, we'll bring.

434
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: On the heat. You know what I'm saying.

435
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: They fought Egypt, they fought then when everybody attacked them

436
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 2: in the sixties, it's like we fought them off. So again,

437
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: no matter how many accolades you got All you really

438
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 2: want to do is be accepted.

439
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: All you're saying is I have the right to be here.

440
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: Like can we be anywhere? I have the right to

441
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 2: be here, and y'all ain't no better than me and

442
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 2: the region the hood is like, well, sure you have

443
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 2: a right to be alive, but you ain't got You

444
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 2: ain't got the right to take the lives of the

445
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,719
Speaker 2: people that was all there, that's all those like you

446
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: can't just be doing that. So in the way that

447
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 2: Drake wants to be accepted is we're wanting to be accepted.

448
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: Just accept us as one of y'all. Only we're better

449
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 2: than you guys. Again the light skin cart but I'm

450
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 2: pretty though again I'm just obviously the same for every

451
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 2: light skinned person.

452
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: Understand I'm just trying to.

453
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 2: Explain a particular type of identity crisis that as somebody

454
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 2: who is staunchly in the black community can see. You know,

455
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 2: it's it's you can see it the turmoil, Like I'm

456
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 2: picturing people I grew up with at this moment, that

457
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 2: that thing to where you just feel like an outsider

458
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 2: no matter where you are. It's a sucky feeling, like

459
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 2: I don't get me wrong, it's a sucky feeling. I'm

460
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 2: being funny about it out of jealousy, the type of

461
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 2: jealousy that I've worked through already. If you know my music,

462
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 2: there's a song called Darkie where I talked about the

463
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: type of self hate sometimes that us as dark skin

464
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 2: black people in America could carry. The lyrics song starts

465
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 2: with used to wish I was Puerto Rican because that

466
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 2: type of black was different, Like I knew I wanted

467
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 2: to be black, but they had curly hair and accents,

468
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 2: and you know, they was a little lighter, you know

469
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So I was like, man, I wish

470
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 2: I had that because all the girls like that. Anyway,

471
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 2: there's a lot of self internalized hating that that's been

472
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 2: worked through at this point. But back to what we're saying,

473
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 2: the reality is in the region, there are people that

474
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 2: are either indifferent to Israel or see them as like

475
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 2: you have to play with them, they're necessary, or they're like,

476
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 2: we just don't like y'all, like as a nation. Obviously

477
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 2: they're not talking about Jews per se, maybe some of

478
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 2: them are. They're saying, as a nation, you're not this

479
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,959
Speaker 2: is fraudulent, like what and the way you're treating our

480
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 2: Palestinian brothers and sisters is fraudulent. Like the fact that

481
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 2: you sided with the greatest evil, which was the Western

482
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 2: countries of America.

483
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: It's like you sold out. You like that.

484
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 2: So I'm just saying again, I'm trying to give you

485
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: your perspective. You sold out. So when you looking at again,

486
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: use our understanding. Kendrick looking at Drake, Like Nigga, it's ghostwriters.

487
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 2: You you pretend like at one point we thought you

488
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 2: were Dominican.

489
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like now you.

490
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 2: Know you was doing all the racket thrown stuff, like Nigga,

491
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: you not dominic then you then sometimes you you you

492
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 2: know you Ireland, then you Jamaica. You know control, It's like, Nigga,

493
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 2: what are you? You know you out here rep in

494
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: Houston and it's like, Nigga, no, you're from Toronto.

495
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: And then it's who doesn't know how lame it is?

496
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 2: You didn't go to Youth University of Kentucky, You don't

497
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 2: live in Kentucky, you didn't play college sports. Why are

498
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 2: you in the warm up lines for the NCAA Final Four?

499
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 2: Like this is corny? So uh, it's just so frustrating,

500
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 2: And the problem is, even as corny as it is,

501
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 2: he never loses, Drake, don't lose. So again, if you're

502
00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 2: all the Middle Eastern countries, you're like, no matter what,

503
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 2: Israel don't lose.

504
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: They never lose, now, even when they're committing.

505
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 2: A genocide in front of everybody's face because of what

506
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 2: they went through through the Holocaust, which is just which

507
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 2: is verifiably at top three worse things to hit humanity.

508
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 2: Nobody arguing that. Ain't nobody defending Hamas. But if you

509
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 2: haven't been in a relationship, just because you was traumatized

510
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 2: as a child, don't mean you get to traumatize your children.

511
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: You with me, now, enter back to the battle.

512
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 2: Enter. All of the sudden, it seemed like Rick Ross

513
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 2: had something to say.

514
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: Drake addressed it right.

515
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 2: He addressed it in his response where he's just like, bro,

516
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 2: I handed you your hits, and don't worry about me, brother,

517
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 2: worry about your stuff with Diddy WHOA which is a

518
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 2: bar okay, because also, well I'm kind of getting ahead

519
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 2: of myself. But you got to follow the story here

520
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 2: because you'll understand the comparison as I get it.

521
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: To what I'm mean ain't by iran.

522
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: I mean, like Ross ain't a good guy in this.

523
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 2: You could still call him Sergeant Ricky because that's a persona.

524
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 2: He was a he worked at a jail and the

525
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 2: persona that he is, he was always a great rapper.

526
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: He's a ghostwriting forever. But that persona was a dude

527
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 2: that was in jail that he kind of just used

528
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 2: his persona to be the boss Rick Ross. You know

529
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: that's a created that persona based on a person but he.

530
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: Was a security guard to jail. Nigga, you're a cop.

531
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: So there's that.

532
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 2: And he still hasn't gotten back from Gully actually talked

533
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 2: about it.

534
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 3: It.

535
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: Uh so of this all this this all hip hop stuff.

536
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: Gully was like, ain't you the nigga that said put

537
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: a Molly in her drink and she ain't even know it. Nigga,

538
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 2: we raping girls now? He says, bitches because you know

539
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 2: he's like we we rap.

540
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: He's like, oh.

541
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 2: No, no matter what, no amount of money can unlame Lane,

542
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 2: my nigga, Like yo, that's super lame.

543
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: Like you don't brag about like fam that's date rape.

544
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 2: You saying this as a bar homie, Like no, you're

545
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 2: not a hero.

546
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: Was he jumping in this to defend Cole and Kendrick.

547
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 2: No, he was doing this because he got a problem

548
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 2: with Drake, but again, so does everybody. It's like doing this, listen,

549
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 2: it's like doing a song with Kanye, like you're gonna

550
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: get a hit out of it, Like I just you don't.

551
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: You know, he got friends obviously, but.

552
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 2: Like listen, if you these are pop parties, you gotta

553
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 2: do the song until that relationship becomes untenable. I know

554
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 2: dudes right now that were like are hit makers that

555
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 2: I got homies who like you know, who landed hits

556
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 2: with like Beaver. And he was like, I this the

557
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 2: Kanye think it's an unworkable environment, Like I can't. It's

558
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 2: like it's like the juice isn't worth the squeeze, you know,

559
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 2: like you just at some point the relations sit becomes untenable.

560
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 2: And he was like, yeah, nah, I look, I actually

561
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: really ain't like him. It's just you gotta do it.

562
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 2: And that's what seems to be happening right now in

563
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: this it is moment.

564
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 3: Now.

565
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 2: I know I'm going back and forth between Israel and

566
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 2: this thing, but it's because I need you to see

567
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 2: the parallels here. It's actually like it'll help you understand,

568
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 2: trust me. So Ricky Rose jumps in. Ricky is hilarious

569
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: shooting his things. Now, we started off with all of

570
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 2: the sudden Iran bombs Israel. Well that's not all of

571
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 2: the sudden, just like Rose is, that's not all of

572
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:35,959
Speaker 2: the sudden.

573
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: It's been stuff brewing here for a while.

574
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: Israel actually popped Iran's consolate in Damascus in Syria. That

575
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 2: was thirty days ago. This was a retaliation to that.

576
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: So don't act like this is when you say this

577
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 2: unprecedented response, it's like it's not unprecedented in the sense

578
00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: that it's like, I can't believe you guys just did that. Ever,

579
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 2: it wasn't out of nowhere. Iran feels like we caught

580
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 2: a stray. What are you shooting at us? For y'all

581
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 2: are in war over there, you a remarkably unjust war.

582
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 2: And we don't like y'all anyway. We've never liked y'all.

583
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 2: And you know we ain't never liked y'all. I know

584
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 2: right now it's between you and Hamas, but we don't

585
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 2: mess it. And you have the nerve not only to

586
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 2: bomb my guy, not only to bomb our consolate, but

587
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 2: our consulate in a whole other country.

588
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: That's bold.

589
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: You didn't even pop me in my hood. You popped

590
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 2: in a hood that I'm good at. That's a violation.

591
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 2: You don't get to just how am I catching these strays?

592
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 2: That's crazy. So that's why when they clapped back, they

593
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: were like, we consider this a done issue. That's why

594
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: Iran said that we consider this done. Don't bring me

595
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 2: into this. Don't bring me into this, to which Israel responds,

596
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 2: I can't bring you into something you already in.

597
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: What is you saying? You think we stupid? What I

598
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: mean by that?

599
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 3: Next time?

600
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: All right, you have to ask yourself why out of nowhere?

601
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 2: Because it's seemingly out of nowhere, Why would Israel take

602
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 2: shots at Iran? Why would Drake out of nowhere take

603
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 2: shots at Ricky Ross?

604
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: Why would Ricky.

605
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 2: Jump into a battle that wasn't even he is It's

606
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 2: because there's things going on here, and these things are this.

607
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 2: The reality is Iran been involved, and how Iran has

608
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 2: been involved is for decades, Iran been to people that

609
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 2: have funded Hezblah. They're the people that are arming Hesbelah.

610
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 2: So a lot of the things that have happened to Israel,

611
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: whether it was from Lebanon through Hesbelah, whether it was

612
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 2: the Palestinians through Hamas, whether it was the Houthis and Yemen.

613
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,240
Speaker 2: They're like, all of y'all are just you're Iran's little homies.

614
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 2: So so Israel like, I'm done going back and forth

615
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 2: with y'all. I need I need to speak to the manager. Okay,

616
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm done playing games the bosses Iran, and

617
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 2: I need Iran to know that we know what you're

618
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 2: doing and you're gonna stop doing this to us. You

619
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: ain't slick. And usually how Iran response is, it's always indirect.

620
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 2: It's always through Hezbelah, Hamas, the Houthis. That's why when

621
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 2: we did the Huthi Who episode, we were like, Okay,

622
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: the Houthi's got their own thing, but remember that's Iran.

623
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 1: Now.

624
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 2: So Iran jumps in and now a lot of the

625
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 2: people that are supporting the people of Palestine are.

626
00:34:54,880 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: Like, great man, take a shot at like distracting. You

627
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Remember Hamas's hope was.

628
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 2: We wanted to all our regional war and remember America's thing,

629
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,360
Speaker 2: and remember when I had did the terrorform one with

630
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 2: the search for common ground thing. The hope was that

631
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 2: we would be able to stop a regional war, because

632
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 2: once the cat get out the bag, it's all bad.

633
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 2: But from Israel's perspective, you take out Iran, harmas is easy.

634
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 2: You take out Iran, you ain't got to worry about

635
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 2: Hamas Hesbaalah or the hoosies that as they thought, we

636
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 2: know that's you, but it one would think that Iran

637
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 2: is doing a good thing in the sense that, like, listen,

638
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 2: we were responding specifically to your attack on our consulate

639
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: in Syria.

640
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: That's not right.

641
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 2: You dropped the bomb in Syria. You took out one

642
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 2: of our guys. That's not right. And also that we

643
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:57,280
Speaker 2: ain't forgot what you did to Costum Soulamani in Iraq.

644
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 2: You keep popping our people and not in our home.

645
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:05,320
Speaker 2: You because in their mind, is America the same people.

646
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 2: You know that, And that's what I'm talking talking talking

647
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 2: talking about. I'm talking about Ron. Iran sees Israel America

648
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 2: as the same. Y'all niggas are the same. It don't matter, right,

649
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 2: So and then Iran's saying, look, we followed the rules.

650
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 2: We gave y'all and everybody around y'all a seventy two

651
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 2: hour warning, like get out the hood, y'all, gone on inside,

652
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 2: we're gonna do this. America was like, no, they didn't.

653
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:35,839
Speaker 2: You ain't give us no man, no you didn't. And

654
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 2: can you trust Iran's word, Absolutely not getru just America's word.

655
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: No. So just if that's the case, I'm still salty

656
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: about that.

657
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 2: And I see y'all going through all this stuff, you

658
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: going through stuff, and we've been playing our part. We've

659
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 2: been chilled, and now you're gonna pop pop off in

660
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 2: me directly on it's own. And they say, now, okay,

661
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 2: look it, leave us out of this. We consider or

662
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 2: the thing done. Don't retaliate. Basically, they like, can we

663
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 2: just go back to the to the way it was? Okay,

664
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: But one would think again, like all right, yes, that's good.

665
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 2: Thank you Iran for being a defender of the region.

00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 2: with Israel. And let me tell you what that thing is.

685
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 2: They want to run the Middle East. Yeah they don't, don't.

686
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 2: Don't get it twisted. Saudi Arabia hands with America.

687
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:29,240
Speaker 1: Jordan.

688
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 2: Why Jordan would jump in because Jordan is like, I

Speaker 1: Everybody need to kick it. You're messing up my money,

697
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 1: right yo. This type of control for a region ain't new.

698
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 1: You know.

699
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 2: Pre World War Two, Japan tried to colonize all of

700
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 2: Asia and they used to say Asia for Asians. So

701
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 2: if you was Hong Kong fam, if you was Thailand,

702
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 2: you was like, I mean, either the white people, the

00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 2: British gonna come down here or y'all gonna come down here.

704
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,799

707
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 2: need that at all. So so like that power struggle

708
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,800

709

00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 2: like that little bright.

731
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,439

Speaker 1: I'm still balling. So and you can't come to the barbecue.

737
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 2: I'm still a boss for the people that Drake want

738
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 2: to be accepted by matters. But if he was just

739
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 2: cool with just being the megastar that he is, I

740
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 2: don't even understand why you responding to any of it.

741
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 2: It's really the question. I don't understand. You ain't have

742
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 2: to say nothing. You're doing state farm commercials.

743
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: What do you care?

744
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 2: He even said in his interview, like, man, people forget

745
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 2: I'm black. Like he said that in his interview that

746
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 2: he did a few years back.

747
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: That was after the push.

748
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 2: A te thing when he went to war with him

749
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: and it came out that he had a son. You know,

750
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 2: He's like, man, y'all, y'all forget I'm black, And poor

751
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 2: Guy said Poor Drake was like, I was gonna take

752
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 2: the year off.

753
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:53,279
Speaker 1: I'm tired. Man, You do care? Care about? What you

754
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 1: care about the way the hommies view you is real care.

755
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 2: And again Iran shots, they unloaded full clips. It ain't

756
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 2: do nothing Ross could unload a full you go. You

757
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 2: are you gonna make Drake not a number one artist?

758
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,919
Speaker 2: Know what you're gonna do is call him a white boy,

759
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: make memes about him, Tell the streets he's laying that's

760
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 2: what you're gonna do, and we are going to continue

761
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 2: to laugh. Now the last part is what the hell

762
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 2: role us got to do it? Okay, So now the

763
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 2: big three lesson is again you gotta know what the dude.

764
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: Wants, just wants to be accepted, you know what I'm saying.

765
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 2: And Ross jumping in is because Ross already just don't

766
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,320
Speaker 2: mess with right, Iran jumping in because Iran just remember,

767

Speaker 2: they just don't mess with Israel.

768
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: They just they just don't mess with them.

769
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 2: Like it is what it is, and there's a bar

770
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 2: and I forget what song it is that Drake is like,

771
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 2: I got dudes that don't f with me, connecting with

772
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 2: dudes that don't f with me, and convincing everybody to

773
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 2: not f with me, you know what I'm saying. And

774
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 2: it's like it's essentially, I mean, that's Israel, right, Like

775
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 2: that's the way they feel like we get it in

776
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 2: from every angle, whereas the rest of the angle, rest

777
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 2: of the world is like, well maybe like you're starving

778
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 2: out Palestinians, man, like y'all just how y'all got here

779
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 2: is just so weird. And of course you know, Drake

780
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 2: can always say Wayne's big homie. Israel can always say America,

781
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:52,760
Speaker 2: they big homie, and it's like, I know, America is like, hey,

782
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 2: don't shoot back because we don't want a regional war.

783
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: Will help you defend yourself, but we ain't gonna help

784
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 2: you be offensive. Like look, you could record in my studio,

785
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 2: but like I don't want to be a part of

786
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 2: this bee poor metro bluemen just just catching strays everywhere.

787
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:16,800
Speaker 2: Right Anyway, America is saying we will help you defend yourself.

788
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you all this how logical that

789
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: sounds to you?

790
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 2: How do you defend yourself in a war with shields

791
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 2: or the weapons? What's gonna stop that weapon from becoming

792
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 2: defensive to offensive? My point is, America, what is you

793
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 2: talking about? You're gonna help them defend themselves but not

794
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,280
Speaker 2: be offensive or what? So, then what are you saying

795
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 2: if they decide to invade Iran, you're not gonna help.

796
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 2: Are you still gonna supply weapons? Can you control what

797
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 2: they do with those weapons? What are you saying that

798
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 2: you're not gonna send troops? You've already taken that off

799
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 2: the table, unless that is than you were gonna do,

800
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 2: and you just ain't told everybody else. What is you saying?

801
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 2: You're not gonna help them? Be offensive? You can't control that.

802
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 2: You understand you're aiding in this genocide like you don't.

803
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 2: Are you act like you act like you don't. Well,

804
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 2: we're we're also providing aid.

805
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 3: Are you.

806
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 2: Maybe stop selling stop giving them money to buy what

807
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 2: buy weapons?

808
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:21,879
Speaker 1: That would be I think that would really help.

809
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 2: I understand those your folks you've already defended, like you

810
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 2: can't back down now right, You can't say you big

811
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,280
Speaker 2: mad and then continue to enable.

812
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: Saw an interview with twenty one Savage.

813
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 2: I can't believe I'm saying this, but I saw an

814
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,200

823
00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 2: You have a chance we could turn this around. But

824
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,839
Speaker 2: look here, Iran jumped in because they already had Ross

825
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 2: fit his rass, because he already had a problem. And

826
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 2: don't think that Ross is some sort of hero that's

827
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 2: helping out with this. You can laugh at the shots,

828
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 2: but that nigga no hero. Iran jumped in that if

829
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 2: you are here to support, if you are here for

830
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 2: a ceasefire and support the Palestinians, and you think Israel

831
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 2: is the is the big evil in this, Iran is

832
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 2: not your hero, okay. And as what we're seeing is

833
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 2: like the Israeli people are begging for nets to Yahoo

834
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,759

851
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,239
Speaker 2: Like I said, that's a repressive regime like he they

852
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 2: like don't think the people of Iran are not happy.

853
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, man, But at least in rap battles,

854
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 2: nobody dies. They just means at least that was the goal.

855
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 2: Who grown men writing poems about each other? I know,

856
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:04,760
Speaker 2: I definitely prefer that then, you know, Biggie and Tupop times,

857
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that.

858
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:30,280
Speaker 1: But man, Ron ron Is you wasn't outside y'all. Okay,

859
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: let me add a little t at the end of this.

860
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 2: There's a theory going around as of today, which is

861
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 2: April seventeenth.

862
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 1: That.

863
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 2: Drake's actually a partial owner of this thing called Gamma,

864
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 2: which is a partnership with UMG, which is record label stuff,

865
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 2: which would mean that he's a partial owner of pretty

866
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:05,879
Speaker 2: much all of.

867
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 1: It. Hip Hop's catalogs and everyone's coming after it. Okay.

868
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 2: So Rick Ross is MMG, Gamma, nav Is, Republic, UMG, Weekend, UMG, Metro, UMG,

869
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 2: Kendrick Interscope UMG right asap is RCAA Records, which is

870
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 2: Sony and then future Sony Right. So between them two things,

871
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 2: he has a pieces of Snoop, Rick Ross, Usher, Sexy

872
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: Red French, Montana d Smoke that there's a possibility that

873
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:49,560
Speaker 2: through his business dealings, it's all speculation that he actually

874
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 2: he actually partially owns all their catalogs. And maybe that's

875
00:49:55,440 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 2: why everybody king's stand at this. This is all t

876
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:06,240
Speaker 2: don't notice for a fact. But if it is, nobody

877
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 2: respond like, okay, that's kind of like game set match,

878
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 2: but it's also it's really a white boy move a politicians.

879
